The 2025 GCE A/L results are set to be released before the upcoming Sinhala and Tamil New Year, according to Commissioner General of Examinations Indika Kumari Liyanage.
The Sinhala and Tamil New Year (Aluth Avurudu / Puthandu) is traditionally celebrated in mid-April—in 2025, it fell around April 13–14. With the announcement made in March 2026 (noting the exam was held late 2025 into early 2026 due to disruptions like Cyclone Ditwah), this means results are expected imminently before the festive season concludes or in the very near term, allowing students to plan their next steps—whether university entrance, vocational training, or other opportunities—with joy and optimism during the New Year celebrations.
Key Highlights : 2025 GCE A/L results Announcement
- A/L Results Timeline — The Commissioner General confirmed that evaluation and processing are in the final stages and nearing completion. The Department of Examinations is prioritizing a timely release to align with the cultural significance of the New Year period.
- O/L Examination Updates — Marking of G.C.E. Ordinary Level (O/L) papers has already begun. Practical examinations for the 2025 (2026) O/L are scheduled for the latter part of April (reports indicate practicals around April 22–30 in related updates). The Department plans to release O/L results promptly after practicals conclude, likely post-April 30.
This efficient approach reflects the Department’s commitment to streamlining processes despite past challenges, ensuring students receive their results without unnecessary delays.
